1 cup polenta
Preparation:
Total Time: 45 minutes
1. Cook the Polenta: Bring the vegetable broth to a boil in a medium saucepan. Gradually whisk in the polenta, salt, and pepper. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 20-25 minutes, or until the polenta is creamy and tender. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
2. Sauté the Vegetables: Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic and sauté until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the red bell pepper and cook for an additional 5 minutes, or until tender-crisp. Stir in the spinach until wilted.
3. Assemble the Dish: Divide the cooked polenta among individual bowls. Top each bowl with the sautéed vegetables.
4. Fry the Eggs: Heat the butter in a small skillet over medium heat. Crack the eggs into the skillet and cook until the whites are set but the yolks are still runny.
5. Plate and Serve: Place a fried egg on top of each bowl of polenta. Garnish with fresh herbs and Parmesan cheese. Serve immediately.
